Hogwarts Legacy - NPC Comments About Amit Thakkar (Voice Clips)

[@GrandTheftDiamonds]

Notes: 1. 00:41 - “Arthur Siggs” is Arthur Plummly’s original name during development. They’re the same person; though not a lot of people are aware of this unless they happen to dig through the game files like I did (just look at the Harry Potter Wiki page for Arthur Siggs and Arthur Plummly). The game files associated with him are still named “ArthurSiggs”. Won’t be the first time this happened e.g. Hector Jenkins’ original name in the game files is actually Hector Weasley. 2. 01:48 - File names that start with “T3Student” are part of conversations between unnamed Hogwarts students, though unfortunately I can’t pinpoint exactly which conversations they’re a part of.

He really need a good own quest line.

I feel like Amit had his storylines cut and that just sucks. He could’ve been involved in more things and storylines, like more involved with Goblins or even helping you understand the ancient magic.

I like Amit! He gives you a decent telescope for free. He shows up for you during that mission DESPITE being scared. And has your back throughout the mission. Admits he’s scared and is direct enough to say he won’t do it again lol. Is always polite, even when I saw him in Hogsmeade near the Hogs Head he said “nice to see you outside the castle” and my MC is like “it’s nice to see you too, Amit!” He’s a great friend. He knows what he likes and isn’t afraid to be himself which is amazing!

I like Amit! I can relate to his enthusiasm for academics. He and Ominis are my faves.

Amit: "Have you ever been star gazing Ominis??? Ominis: 😑

"Amit is studying for OWLs already, no wonder he doesn't have friends." Reminds me of Luna. Why are Ravenclaws always bullied for their eccentricity? So sad.

[@dharmamoon22]

Amit reminded me of Raj from the Big Bang Theory. Raj was an astrophysicist on that show.

Amazing and nice gameplay 😃👍. My compliments my friend. Have a great day !

[@leonlacroix2638]

I must admit. I like umbrige more than Amit. He was so disappointing as a character and as a ravenclaw made me embarrassed when he was compared to the other students. Huge missed opportunity on a ravenclaw companion.

[@fever4598]

There’s no way you just compared Amit to Umbridge. What has he ever done that’ disappointed you that much?

[@leonlacroix2638]

@@fever4598 where to start... His only quest, presents him as a coward compared to the others. Even if he does no combat at all. His only good for astronomy. Something even muggles are good at. His gobbledegook is terrible, there's other NPCs we meet with better gobbledegook. Making Amit a embarrassment to us for even recommending him. We should have asked Mr. Oaks. At least umbrage was a villain that did her job well.

​​@@leonlacroix2638lmao so true, As a South Asian/Indian he made me cringe so hard, We South Asians refuse to claim him as our own and also as a Ravenclaw. He is a disgrace to the house of Ravenclaw. Man, I wish Ravenclaw got better characters coz all of them were so lame and annoying. And I am really tired of Hollywood/America's stereotypical representation of Asian men, it's just getting really old and annoying at this point. Amit Thakkar and Gladwin Moon are not even actual characters, they are just a stereotype in a trope. They paid extra money to Asif Ali( Amit voice actor) to sound annoying and funny, like a scammer from a call centre. That's not the accent of Millions In South Asia, It's a trope. If Hollywood doesn't stop their agenda of "Desexualization of Asian men" coz of their FragileWhiteMaleMasculanity, then they should stop representing as all together, and anyways Asia has all their own Huge Entertainment Industries, eg Bollywood and K-pop, so if Hollywood doesn't do any kind of representation for us it would reply matter much.
